Earthquake+

When the Ground Shakes, You Need to Know First

Imagine you’re at home in a seismically active region, and a tremor hits. Your heart races, and you need instant, reliable data—not just a vague alert. Earthquake+ transforms your smartphone into a professional-grade seismic monitoring station. Developed by Slava Barouline, this app pulls real-time earthquake data from 21 global sources, including the US Geological Survey and the Euro-Mediterranean Seismological Centre, delivering a comprehensive picture of global seismic activity directly to your pocket. Whether you’re a researcher, a disaster response coordinator, or a resident in a quake-prone area, this tool provides the critical information you need to stay safe and informed.

Core Features That Keep You Ahead of the Tremors

Real-Time Global Monitoring with 21 Data Feeds
Earthquake+ aggregates live seismic data from a vast network of authoritative sources. You can instantly view earthquakes of any magnitude worldwide, with automatic updates every few minutes. The app highlights events near your saved locations, ensuring you never miss a significant tremor in regions that matter to you.

Unlimited Push Notifications with Zero Ads
Unlike many free apps that bombard you with commercials, Earthquake+ delivers timely, uncapped push alerts without any ad interference. You choose the minimum magnitude, distance from your location, and even specific seismic networks. When a quake matches your criteria, you receive an instant notification with epicenter details, depth, and time—enabling immediate situational awareness.

Advanced Focal Mechanism and Moment Tensor Displays
This is a standout feature for technical users: Earthquake+ is the only mobile app to show focal mechanisms and moment tensors for significant earthquakes. These graphical representations reveal the fault orientation and slip direction, giving geologists and advanced hobbyists a deeper understanding of the seismic event’s mechanics. You can analyze the stress regime and plate boundary interactions directly on your device.

Customizable Filters and Map/List Visualizations
Personalization is at the heart of the experience. You can filter earthquakes by magnitude, time range, depth, and network source. View results in a clean list format with sortable columns or on an interactive map with color-coded markers. Toggle between satellite, terrain, and street map layers to correlate seismic events with geographic features.

Volcanic Activity Tracking and Tsunami Alerts
Beyond earthquakes, the app integrates volcanic eruption data from the Smithsonian Institution’s Global Volcanism Program. You can monitor active volcanoes, recent eruptions, and ash plume advisories. Additionally, Earthquake+ provides real-time tsunami warnings for coastal regions, including estimated arrival times and wave heights, giving you critical extra minutes to act.

• Unlimited push alerts with customizable magnitude and distance thresholds
• Focal mechanism and moment tensor diagrams for major seismic events
• Interactive map with multiple base layers and earthquake clustering
• Volcanic activity feed from Smithsonian Institution’s database
• Tsunami warning system with arrival time and height estimates

Designed for Speed and Precision in Every Interaction

The interface is built for rapid scanning. Earthquake lists show magnitude, location, time, and depth at a glance. Tap any event to access a detailed breakdown: waveform plots, felt reports from other users, and links to USGS event pages. You can bookmark specific earthquakes for later reference, share critical data via a single tap to emergency contacts or social media, and even export data for offline analysis. The app auto-refreshes in the background, so you always have the latest information without manual intervention.

Your Go-To Tool for Seismic and Volcanic Awareness

Earthquake+ fills a vital niche for anyone who needs fast, detailed, and ad-free access to global seismic and volcanic data. It combines professional-grade visualization tools with consumer-friendly customization, making it equally valuable for scientists and everyday users. The inclusion of focal mechanisms, moment tensors, and tsunami alerts elevates it far beyond basic notification apps.

Download the Earthquake+ mobile app now! Get instant, ad-free access to 21 seismic networks, volcanic alerts, and tsunami warnings. Don’t wait for the next tremor—equip yourself with the most comprehensive earthquake monitor available.

Heads up: you’ll need a stable internet connection for real-time data updates. Some advanced features, like historical data exports and extended map layers, require an optional in-app purchase.
